How many times in the last few seasons have we been dudded by linesmen? At least she got the crucial decision right.


Where did I once say she didn't do a good job? Did you miss the bit where I said she could do the same as a male official?

I think it is good to see our Manager's response to all this.

After Keys saying that the linesman will make a mistake and Kenny will 'go potty' at this mornings press conference as the journo's gathered, he asked the Sky representative if he was ok with there being a female journalist in the room.

Shows what class our manager has to take the [oops] out of them over this, and he sets an example you should try to follow Dunc.

You may be playing devil's advocate in order to get a response, but I doubt it.

What you, and other who support your views fail to realise is that comments like this are part of a much wider picture, where, in a male dominated world, women are constantly put down or denigrated as soon as they are seen to be doing something that isn't 'their role', or that doesn't fit in with some mens ideas.

In general society women don't earn the same as men, get the same pensions, are ignored for promotion, and as recent events at the BBC have shown, often lose their jobs purely because they don't fit into some male idea of female perfection.

It is because of all this that the comments by Gray and Keys are so offensive, and why you, and those who think as you do, should all be ashamed of yourselves.


Where did I once say she didn't do a good job? Did you miss the bit where I said she could do the same as a male official? I also made it clear that I support equality in the work place. However, why can't women stick to women's football and men stick to men's football? What's so wrong with that view?

The rest is just trying to get a bite.

The same reason that women don't play in our game? Would you welcome a female in the Liverpool side?

That's not the same. It's a practical fact that women in general couldn't compete with men at the highest level of the sport.

That doesn't mean they can't watch it. That doesn't mean they can't support the team. That doesn't mean they can't run the line. They're just as capable of doing those as you are (or possibly more so wink ).
